I took a chance and was soooo glad I did. I got Zuni cross turquoise earrings and a heavily beaded multiple string turquoise necklace. Took about 2 weeks to get and they were absolutely beautiful! Love!

I visited the actual store in Gilbert, AZ with my two kids. I love the Turquoise Ring I bought. The owner was super nice and gave my kids Native made leather bags and let them pick out Turquoise nuggets and arrowheads, that was cool and the kids loved it. They have a giant stash of jewelry in the back. The Old Pawn and Vintage pieces are all mixed in with the stuff their shop makes in house so it was hard to find but they were in the mix and as I started to look longer the Old Pawn pieces started jumping out at me. I saw the shop and met some nice Navajo jewelers. I talked with a Navajo woman Lenora Begay and saw the necklace she was working on. There were many more, I met Tom, Sharron, Joey, Garrison there that day. All Navajo I think. It was easy to spend a lot of time there so plan for that if you go to the store. They told me that the website has more jewelry listed than in the store because most items they make in house are usually made once they are ordered so they aren't sitting in the store but they are listed online so if you want to see everything they make its best to go through the website catalog. Overall it was an amazing experience, not corporate or phony at all. They were sawing Silver right in front of me. That was cool.

I bought a pair a "Blue Turquoise Silver Bead Navajo Bracelet Sterling Spacers" at $36.60 SKU 0421-32360-BR and a pair of "Natural Kingman Turquoise Silver Navajo Earrings French Hooks" at $78.80 SKU 2163-29248-ER. After a few gentle wearings, the middle stone of one of the earring had a crack and the bracelet color of the stones have faded. Called the company and was told that they would try to repair the earrings for me. I sent both items back on May 8 with tracking # showing they had received on May 10. As of today, I have not heard from the company. I will never buy anything from this company again.

I received a silver hairclasp with turquoise heads for Christmas, which I see is $88.00 on there site. The first time I put my hair in a ponytail with the clasp it fell apart after a couple minutes. My hair is fine, thin and shoulder length so not a lot of weight. Junk!

I purchased a 177.00 bow with arrows.
It broke in seconds of handling it.
It was made of the cheapest plywood I've ever seen.
It is TRASH.
I HAD TO TOSS IN THE CAN.
NO REFUND.
THEY SUCK…

I would suspect, as one other reviewer had stated earlier, that this jewelry is not authentically made and that there is probably one Indian overseer in charge in order to misleadingly portray authentic handmade jewelry by Indian hands. This was evident when I went to purchase a necklace for my wife from their Etsy shop. Only one item is posted at a time to give the illusion that it is one-of-a-kind, but as soon as that one finally sells, it is soon replaced with another exactly like it.

In fact, I'm on the front page of their website right now, reading about the company. Exactly what I suspected, it is run by Indians, but whenever they brag about the authenticity, they point out "When you make an Alltribes Indian Art jewelry purchase, you can be confident that your exquisite Native American jewelry piece was created by a renowned artist in our shop". It's clear to me that Alltribes is striving for a prominent place in the fashion world, boasting that stars such as Ralph Lauren, Will Ferrel, and Kevin Costner wear their jewelry. But what's relieving to me is that they never claim that the jewelry is authentically handmade by Indians. So it doesn't appear that they're running a deceptive business. And a deceptive business would never make it this far after being open for 50 years anyways.

Now, I'll get to the good stuff. The bone choker that I recently ordered for my wife is definitely beautiful and stunning. Authentic or not, it looks nice. The only concern I have about the physical features of the necklace itself is that the strings internally holding it all together look very thin (almost thread-like) and I wonder how long this necklace can be worn before one of them snaps. Luckily, we're pretty crafty here and I wouldn't consider something like this a total loss if it did break. I would just replace it with stronger cords.

Before getting all wrapped around the axle about the authenticity about their jewelry, first – read what they're all about, and second – take a look around the internet and see the cost difference between Alltribes jewelry and authentic handmade Indian jewelry. If my bone choker was made by hand from an independent Indian artist and the silver piece in the center was hand stamped and the turquoise set in it was real, this would have cost probably over $400. But I bought it for $70. If anything, the price alone is a giveaway that it's not authentic. Authentic Indian jewelry just doesn't sell for that cheap. It's well made stuff made with hand stamped metal and real turquoise. Real Indian jewelry is not for the common man. It is very expensive. Alltribes has made beautiful jewelry inspired by Indian art at a cost that most people can afford, so it puts their product out there. The authentic stuff is harder to come by, you just don't see it as much. The silver piece in the middle of the bone choker I ordered has a highly polished finish to it that could have only been done by machine. It's still beautiful.

All in all, I like the product that Alltribes is putting out. I do have to knock one star because it seems as even though it's run by Indians, it doesn't say anything about their employment of indians. Reservations are tough places and they've gotten a pretty dirty deal by the US. If Alltribes had only Indian artists, they could say more about their products and claim more authenticity. But as reservation unemployment rates are well over 70%, Alltribes seems to be getting their help from elsewhere. It would be nice to see them helping their own community more, but I suspect they're sacrificing that for bigger profits and more mass production.

Kachina ordered was not genuine. Obviously mass produced. Not by sougthwest indian tribe. Good enough for the Martha Stewart crowd, but a pathetic copy of the real thing. Suspect one "native" oversees assembly line so they can call it "authentic". "No Quibble Guarantee" means if you quibble, it will do no good. Read the small print – No Refunds – policy is craftily worded to suggest that they stand behind their products, when they really only stand behind their cash flow. Rude customer service. Once they have your money, go fish.

I just received my Kingman Birdseye Squash Blossom Necklace in the mail. It was delivered in a lovely black velvet lined case, and is absolutely beautiful. I have never seen such a gorgeous example of this style of necklace and I had been looking for several years. The stones are matched so well; all being a beautiful blue color, with a rich golden brown matrix throughout. The craftmanship of the silver around each stone contains much detail with beaded silver and squash blossoms at the side of each stone. The large silver beads between each stone are perfectly matched in size. I'm so happy with my purchase. If this isn't , "museum quality," I don't know what is! Thank you again Richard for working with me, making it possible for me to own such a beautiful necklace. Kathleen Ryan

After looking through the online catalogue I purchased the Native American Bolo Tie Carved Kingman Turquoise Arrowhead Sterling, as a gift form my husband. When I opened the box I was shocked the picture did not do it justice. It was absolutely breath taking.

Thank you

On Feb 16, 2004, I purchased 1/4 lb. sleeping beauty turquoise stones. I received the order in 3 days, which is very nice. However, the web page states "20% OFF Plus Get Additional FREE SHIPPING On Orders Over $50". I received the free shipping but did not receive the 20% discount. I called and spoke with a gentleman who stated the discount does not apply to turquoise stones and that it had not been posted yet. He stated he would give me the 20% discount. The following day, there was no discount so I called again and spoke with the owner, Richard. He also stated turquoise is not discounted. I mentioned that's not what the web page states. He said it states the discount only applies to jewelry. I don't see that anywhere on the web page! He was not at the office and would not discuss it and abruptly hung up on me. If it states the discount is for jewelry only, it is well hidden. I have placed the order, made 2 phone calls, I must make a 3rd call in 3 days to resolve this. From the tone of the owner's voice, he didn't sound too cooperative. I may have to return this order. Please beware of what you order! I was hoping to find a company that I can begin doing business with on a regular basis. This company has demonstrated poor customer service and argumentative phone representatives. It is clear that my business is not important to Alltribes Indian Art. If I receive good, honest customer service, I will be loyal for life. Alltribes Indian Art has yet to earn that loyalty.

Just two days after ordering I recived my marble fetish necklace in the mail. The necklace was reasonably priced and the marble bears adorning the necklace remind me of fetishes my native american grandmother gave me as a child. I am very pleased with the service this company has provided and I would not hesitate to recommend them to friends!

Is Alltribes legit or scam? Can I trust Alltribes?
